Let it Snow!

[Jim von Krieg]

Mmm, I like Watermelon... Yummy...

Oh the good old days at Fort Drum... I arrived in December and it was 40F and I thought this ain't so bad... then the first weekend the heavens opened up leaving my Explorer a slight bump in the parking lot and temperatures dropping to -60F. BRRR... I remember one 24 hour period we got 44" of snow... It would have been the most in the country that day, except Buffalo got 46"... I eventually left Fort Drum through a white out snow storm from Adams to Syracuse... Once past Syracuse, it was blue sky and beautiful...

Also, nice story about Ike's weatherman...

As to Global Warming, I tend to discount it as hype because I remember growing up with the doom and gloom of global cooling... New York was going to be under several hundred feet of glacier ice... With all the revelations lately, I'm even more of a skeptic... GW may be true, but nobody has been able to make the case and without the data fudging... and then there is Al Gore as the GW spokesman... that slimey politician that created the "internet" promoting it for personal gain just absolutely puts me in full skeptic mode...

Oh well, the snow was gone here by the afternoon... however, the mountain behind us looks real good wrapped in clouds and snow...
